Carbon burns in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide. Which chemical equation describes this reaction? A. carbon + oxygen + carbon dioxide B. carbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide C. carbon dioxide → carbon + oxygen D. carbon dioxide + carbon → oxygen

Respuesta :

Answer:

Hello my friend! The correct answer to this quastion is "B. carbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide"

Explanation:

Carbon uses oxygen and heat as fuel for the O2 chemical bond breakdown reaction, and the new reaction between carbon and formed oxygen or carbon dioxide.

C + O2 ----> CO2

Carbon burns in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide. The chemical equation describing this reaction is [tex]\text { carbon }+\text { oxygen } \rightarrow \text { carbon dioxide }[/tex]

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The chemical equations are the representation of a particular reaction.This equation used to avoid the description of the reaction and narrowing it to precise statement. It consists of two parts namely,

  • The reactants that initially present undergoes mutual reaction.
  • The products, the aftermath of the reaction.

Here Carbon and oxygen are the reactants, the arrow symbol shows the direction of the reaction and the product here is carbon dioxide.
